[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]School is, of course, childcare, and our entire economy is built around that assumption. I have no idea why DCUM is obsessed with this fiction. [/quote] Then something in the last 20 years or so went very, very wrong. And it explains a lot why schools have watered down curriculum in this country. I hear people from other countries describing what happens abroad and it sounds a lot more like school when I was a kid. The AAP program in FCPS is basically what school expectations (except possibly for math) were for EVERYONE in school. Now it is considered advanced. I guess people just want it to be daycare so that’s what it’s become. [/quote] I agree. Just because parents COULD work during the time that children are at school, does not mean schools are daycare and must provide care. I am not a teacher and I have been a working mom and a stay at home mom. The entitlement is astounding. [/quote]
